I missed out on two:

I wouldn't want to go to Nigeria on vacation (or for any other reason)

Pogo Stick for balance.

Glad to see others put Jackie Gleason for a big mouth.

Only two of my answers failed to make Frank's survey, which isn't too bad.

"Name a celebrity, living or dead, known for having a big mouth." I said Rosie O'Donnell.

"Name a country where you wouldn’t want to go on vacation." On this one, I said Estonia.

As for the Mount Rushmore question, the answer of Barack Obama being a dead president might have been just subconscious wishful thinking for those 4 people.
"[Drumpf's] name alone creates division and anger, whose words inspire dissension and hatred, and can't possibly 'Make America Great Again.'" --Kobe Bryant (1978-2020)

Yeah, all the people who said it meant it. (I know them.)

I deliberately reached out to conservative friends to make sure Reagan was represented in this survey, as he would be in a totally random survey. Not one of them let me down.

The high showing for Broadway music, though, no doubt reflects the fact that a lot of my pool of respondents are theatre people.

How many people were surveyed?

What do you have against Estonia? I've been there and enjoyed it. I'd be happy to return some day. I didn't see anything not to like.

I also visited Estonia. Just a one-day stop on a cruise, but I really liked it. I think the Pastor is taking a jab at another BB.
